Case Study
Biological Dynamics entrusts Rogue Valley Microdevices with fabricating the sensors behind its lab-on-a-chip cancer diagnostics
How deep surface-science expertise, careful control of fabrication tolerances, and a shared Six Sigma discipline help enable a sample-to-answer platform that isolates exosomes, DNA, and RNA directly from blood.
Enabling accessible cancer diagnostics
The proliferation of new cancer drugs and changes in the delivery of cancer care over the past decade have brought significant complexity to treatment pathways—while diagnostics capable of meeting these new paradigms have seen limited progress.
Biological Dynamics is an innovative diagnostic company committed to improving global cancer outcomes by empowering healthcare communities with accessible cancer diagnostics. The company is developing a portfolio of novel oncology products designed to enable early detection and individualized monitoring of cancer across multiple care settings.
At the heart of its approach is a proprietary “lab-on-a-chip” platform that directly isolates cell-free nanoparticles and macromolecules from whole blood, serum, or plasma—without the need to pre-process samples.
Rogue Valley Microdevices manufactures the sensing devices embedded in Biological Dynamics’ technology platform, enabling the isolation of exosomes, DNA, and RNA at the core of its diagnostic workflow.
A simple workflow, an advanced interface
The platform is designed to deliver a simple sample-to-answer workflow for the isolation and detection of macromolecular targets—cell-free DNA, exosomes, and proteins—from biological fluids, interacting with nanoparticles through an advanced electrical interface.
